We Monks are not vegetarians but we are animal friendly, and we are so without discrimination of one specious over another.All animals are equal with the possible exception of Tory homo sapiens, who are more equal than others.These animals appeared on the kitchen table and were photographed by Mrs Monk and seemed to resonate with BSE and Farmville and Morrissey and of course Orwell.

The Wakefield audience of BBC Question Time were most concerned about Brexit voters being regarded as racist and stupid.

The audience were unrepresentative of the 48% Remain vote since they were overwhelmingly Brexit voters. The panel was also weighted with Brexiteers.

However the Brexiteers failed to belie the myth that Brexit voters are at all racist or stupid.

One audience member referred to the 2% margin that decided the referendum outcome as a "landslide"; this was either a failure of basic mathematics or the English language, or both.

A racist primary school teacher spoke of the parents of the children in his school, accusing them of being "divisive" because of their use of foreign languages. Pity the children who are educated by this extremely aggressive man who was determined to hammer home dogmatic racist slurs to somehow make the point that he was not a “racist” and he was not “stupid”.

Another young man complained about the "fascist" language of the debate and David Dimbleby had to ask him how he voted so he might understand who he was accusing of being fascist. It turns out that he was referring to the minority of polite Remain voters in the audience who only spoke to complain about the tone of the debate.

A bad day for Wakefield and respect for the brave few the BBC invited to represent the 48%, the so called "metropolitan elite", much maligned by the right wing tabloids. The Mail and the Express stoke up and popularise racism on a daily basis.

David Dimbleby also allowed some unchallenged gratuitous abuse of Jeremy Corbyn who was not present and unrepresented. That seems to be the current ongoing BBC routine bias that is shaping British popular opinion through the platform of BBCQT and elsewhere.

These pages are dedicated to exposing lies and hypocrites. This is extremely easy work that can be done with the fingers of one hand.

You don't have to try to expose lies in 2016 UK and worldwide, post-Trump, because we are now in a post truth, sub-truth world; it is now officially true that nothing at all is now actually expected to be true and more to the point, required to be honest and truthful; no longer do we countenance doubt or fret about telling the complete truth and nothing but.. Nobody gives a crap.

Because truth is now redundant we little Britons rely upon commentators on the TV who are engaged by the public purse to facilitate a verity of their own or some other particular persuasion. Andrew Neil and Tory Laura are the chosen arbiters upon which we, the utterly stupefied Little Britons, are obliged to rely. We do so with an unreliable laissez-faire expectation of clarity.

Theresa May is perhaps the first PM, if not merely the current UK Prime Minister to be so brazenly enthusiastically nakedly knowing about it being OK to be economical with the complete truth. Theresa May likes to ape Thatcher albeit unconvincingly and theatrically so. Her PMQS performances are measured by the quality of her sneering and her awkward "come up and see me sometime" jokes.

However, Jeremy Corbyn's Questions are determinedly fit for purpose particularly when they embarrass Theresa May into tautology-overdrive. The last two PMQS have done just that; mission accomplished.

When asked about chancellor Hammond's budget which ignored the crisis of Health and Social care with not a single mention of the crisis of Health and Social care, May changed the subject and blamed the last Labour government.

When asked about the new record borrowing of her government, she changed the subject and blamed the last Labour government. Yawn.

When asked about the affordability of Hammond's tax cuts for corporations, she thanked the corporations that fund the Tory party and have no interest in the crisis of Health and Social care.

Over to you Tory Laura and Andrew Neil. What is true and where exactly is the bull shit?

I fall over a lot playing tennis because I chase a lot of lost-cause balls, in the spirit of this man.

Subsequently I found out that I had a double fracture of my left wrist but since I am not left handed, I was able to continue playing and win a set. This gave me bragging rights with which to taunt my adversaries. They know who they are.

Murray knows better than to taunt his opponents with any more than the regulation fist pump which is of course mandatory in tennis, but a problem in any other context.

Andy Murray is not one of my adversaries. He is however now the "undisputed" World Number 1. Murray reaffirmed that status at the 02 by beating 5 top-8 players in 6 days, including an unexpectedly comfortable win against Novak Djokovic in the final.

When I say "undisputed" there remains some residual unexplained myopic disregard for Murray's achievements amongst some club players which I fail to understand. They know who they are.

Already I have heard from the Myopics that Murray had only won because Rafa and Federer were injured. This theory is not supported by the true statistical facts of course.

But have any of the players mentioned here won a set with a broken arm. Not even Andy Murray. It can’t be done, surely?!

Two Lame Ducks?Both are reckless anarchists prepared to deceive and ignite fires. Neither have a remedy or the means, nor indeed the will or capability to deal with the additional problems they have created. The world certainly needs fixing but that is not on the agenda of the Two Lame Ducks.

WOW is the last movie to be posted and was filmed by Saramo from a wheelchair around and about the Ai Weiwei room at Tate Modern in London 6 November 2016. Thank you old Neil Young. Tate Shadows was the first movie created and posted on Vimeo and features the homespun music of Monkles.

Donald Trump is the love child of Judge Judy and Oswald Mosley. He is the spoilt man child, prepared to say anything to get noticed and promise anything to get elected. He courted blue collar white men with promises he will not keep.

He will become the lamest of all lame duck presidents.

He called the system “rigged” when he was confronted by his sociopathic fault lines, but with staggering hypocrisy, as he formerly accepted the Presidency, he feigned love for all the Americans he had insulted in order to become president,

He borrowed the line from the late Hughie Green who, like Trump was also a misunderstood sociopath who failed to resist applying fake sincerity in thick layers.

“I mean this most sincerely folks” Trump said again and again and again.

Love is a very splendid thing. A movie called "Love" was created by us Monks at Shoestringonline. We then discovered that there were 10,729 movies on vimeo with the same title. Most seem to be syrup, or church, or just bad, or all three. Surely there would be enough to start a Love Channel. Love Channel was born, or was there already a Love Channel. Apparently not.

Mrs. Monk's Would-be Diary should have been written by Mrs. Monk, since she is the "Writer" in the family.However, since she is a writer only in the conceptual sense, I have undertaken to fill these pages on her behalfIf not by her, these pages will certainly be about her, and other important matters of the day Leslie Monk
